Well - I am not sure if it's officially a kernel as I can't
remember how PydMagic works. But in effect it gets you most of
the way there and is usable.
I thought PydMagic allows one to call easily write D code to call
in some Python code in Jupyter. A D Jupyter kernel would allow
one to use Jupyter with D the same as one could use Python or R.
PydMagic probably gets part of the way there, and some other
projects mentioned above probably would help in other ways.
I consider it a nice-to-have, but I wouldn't give it a super high
priority. The real advantage is for getting people who would
otherwise use Python or R or other languages to use D. rdmd works
just fine for me.
